When Merling was a high draft pick, he now says, he became complacent knowing that he was going to make the team. In Green Bay, Merling has no such assurances, and he says that’s going to make him push himself.

Funny how the field is actually starting to look crowded on our DL. He's going to really have to show well to make it, and I hope he does. Wilson and WInn have got to be feeling the pressure to deliver. Ted and his staff look to have done well to create some good competition at a position where we sorely needed it.

That's most likely "iffy" at best, but who knows... It will be interesting to see if he comes into training camp in shape, ready to compete. If he doesn't he'll be gone pretty quickly IMO.
